Hak-Ju Lee - no doubt one of the top prospects in all of baseball imho. Left-handed hitting, lead-off type, power potential, excellent fielder, smooth actions... also one heck of a teammate. Speaks good English and is very likable. Sticks out immediately even to the casual observer.

Luke Bailey - perhaps unlimited potential. Seen him crush the ball this week against high A pitching. Hit two homeruns with ease. Barreling the ball. Looks like a great athlete. Extremely strong arm. He stood out to me all week.

Todd Glaesman - didn't see him hit a lot but this kid has athletic potential. Very tall kid. Looks like he is 6-7 or 6-8 out on the field. Looks like an outstanding athlete. I can see the potential there.

I like what the Rays have accumulated in the minor leagues. They have very good athletes. I am also impressed with the Rays minor league coaching and development. Nobody is working harder in the minor leagues than the Rays coaches or players imho.

Daniel, great stuff, I was hoping some ST fans might have some updates. Best part was that they were all position players, esp on Bailey.

Anon, on Kiermaier, he was #26 on BA's list, and I think he also was named by them as one of the better lower-round picks by performance. It's really a numbers game for him, lots of OFs at Princeton and HV (and maybe a repeat or 2 from BG) ready for full-season ball (and don't forget DJ Jones is back too). Since he's still young (will be 21 this year), they may put him at HV and older guys at BG. Lot's to like about him though, only worry was strikeouts - 54 in 218 ABs.

Renegades Host, I don't know how to contact you. You can email me at dougmilhoan@raysprospects.com. I don't know how to do fancy slideshows, so I may have to forward them to Jim, or I could just post a couple at a time. Make sure to let me know how you would like to be credited (name, website, or not at all if you prefer). Looking forward to seeing them!

There are a lot of HVR fans everywhere. Look at their attendance numbers, Twitter and facebook followers, etc. Really amazing for a short-season affiliate. Speaks well of the fans and the team, owned by the Goldklang Group.
